Amanzi aluxolweni anengcwaba leenqanawa kunye namadoda
I-Scapa Flow, umzimba wamanzi anzulu ojikelezwe yi-Orkney Islands yaseSkotland, ibe yindawo yokukhusela iinqanawa zemfazwe ukususela kwimizuzu engama-Viking. Kuye kwabona ezinye zeemeko eziphambili kunye neyona nto inobungozi yemikhosi yehlabathi ezimbini. Namhlanje indawo yeSwitzerland yokuthungela isistim sezinto ezahlukahlukeneyo kunye nolwazi lwembali lwe-naval oludityaniswe kumathunjwa alo okulwa kunye neenqanawa zalo ezidumile zeWWI.
Ukucinywa kweFleet yaseJamani
Emva koMkhosi weMfazwe Yehlabathi I, iinqanawa ezingama-74 zeJamani eziLwandle eziPhakamileyo zaseYurophu zayalelwa kwi-Scapa Flow ezobanjelwa ngoxa iingxoxo malunga nokuzinikela ziqhubeka.
Bahlala iinyanga ezili-10, babe yikhangelo lokutyelela.
Njengoko kusayinwe ukuzinikela ngokusemthethweni, u-Admiral von Reuter, umlawuli waseJamani, ulungele ukutshabalalisa i-navy yakhe kunokuba ibone phantsi kolawulo lwaseBrithani. NgoJuni 21, ngo-1919, kunye neenqwelo-moya zaseBrithani kude nokuzivocavoca, wanika umyalelo wokucima iinqanawa. Bonke abangama-74 behla ngemizuzu. Kwakuyinto enkulu yokukhanda imitya yemikhosi emlandweni.
Nangona ezininzi iinqanawa zazisuswa ngowe-1920, iinqanawa ezisibhozo zeenqwelo zaseJamani zihlala kwiScapa Flow, okwenza enye yeyona nto ibalulekileyo yeYurophu kwaye ithandwa kakhulu.
Uninzi lwabalwandle baseJamani belusecaleni xa i-Fleet yaseJamani igubha. Amagqabi ama-Skeleton ayesebhodini kwaye bonke basindiswa. I-buoy kwenye indawo yoMlambo ibonisa intlungu enkulu yabantu.
Ukucima kweHMS Royal Oak
Ekuqaleni kweMfazwe yeHlabathi II, inxalenye enkulu yeBrithani Royal Navy yayimiswe kwisibambiso sayo, iScapa Flow.
Ngobusuku ka-Oktobha 13, 1939, i-U-Boat yaseJamani yangena kwiNgqumbo yayo ngasempuma. I-HMS Royal Oak, iinqwelo zokulwa ezazisetyenziselwa njengezindlu zangexeshana zokuthungatha umkhosi kwi-Orkney. Ku-1,400 e-bhedini, i-833 yafa xa iinqanawa zahlutha zaza zanyuka. Namhlanje, isiza saseRoyal Oak sisilumkiso semfazwe ekhuselekile, ephawulwe yi-buoy kunye ne-ock of oil eqhubekayo iphuma kuyo.
Umzila wesempuma ukuya kwiSpipro Flow yavalwa kunye nokwakhiwa kwee-Barriers zeChurchill ezixhaphaza isiqhagamshelo sendleleni phakathi kwe-Orkney jikelele kunye neziqithi ezincinci zeBurray kunye neSouth Ronaldsay.
Ukuhambisa okanye ukungafihla iJamani
Amaziko amaninzi e-Orkney asebenze ngeendlela zokukhokela ukuze abone iinqanawa zaseJamani eziphazamisekileyo kunye nezilwanyana kunye nezilwanyana ze-Scapa Flow:
- I-Scapa Flow Diving Centre isebenza kwisikhephe somtshini wokuloba, ukudilika kunye nokubona ukuhamba.
- I-Scapa Scuba yiziko lePADI lokudilika kunye nevenkile yokuthungela. Banikezela ngeendlela zokukhokela, ukuqeshiswa kwezixhobo, ukulungiswa kwento emile kunye nezifundo zeNitrox.
- I-Stromness Diving Centre Yiba ne-fully-equipped equipped dive ye-Scapa Flow charter kunye ne-Nitrox kulabo bafanele ukuyipompa.
Ngaphandle kokuba ungadluli, unokwazi ukuphonononga iGrafu Flow ngaphantsi kwamanzi ngoncedo lwezithuthi ezisetyenziswa kude (ROV). Ukuhamba ngee-Eye Eye Boat Uhambo lunikela iiholide ezintathu ze-Scapa Flow, ekugqibeleni ekunciphiseni i-ROV yazo ukuphonononga enye yezinto eziqhelekileyo zaseJamani. Ulyelelo olupheleleyo luquka amathuba okufikelela kwi-Orkney enkulu ye-gray colony seal kunye neepermars, blackbacks, gannets, guillemots kunye ne-arctic terns.
